PHOENIX — Sections of Loop 303 near Happy Valley Parkway in Peoria will be closed at night on Monday and Tuesday as crews set up barrier walls in preparation for a widening project, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.

Northbound Loop 303 between Happy Valley and Lone Mountain parkways will be closed from 10 p.m. Monday to 5 a.m. Tuesday. Drivers can exit northbound Loop 303 to eastbound Happy Valley Parkway and use northbound Lake Pleasant Parkway to get around the construction.

Southbound Loop 303 between Lone Mountain and Happy Valley parkways will be closed Tuesday from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Wednesday. Drivers can exit Loop 303 to southbound Lake Pleasant Parkway and use westbound Happy Valley Parkway to get back on Loop 303.

The widening project, starting in December, will add a third lane in both directions along Loop 303 between Happy Valley and Lake Pleasant parkways, according to ADOT.

A new Loop 303 traffic interchange for the future Jomax Parkway will also be constructed.

It will take approximately one year to complete the widening project, according to ADOT.
